When I create a newfile, I am using the filename as a variable to create the new filename. When I ouput it, the filename contains the file extension in the middle of the file
example:
router1.txtshcdpneighbors.txt
router2.logshcdpneighbors.txt
My initial approach was to strip it out, now I would like to strip out .txt or .log. How can I add an or statement to the for in statement?
Here is the code that I have now:
Code:
for i in ./*.txts* or ./*.log*
do mv -- "$i" "${i//.txts/-s}"
done
If have
var='$variable'
how can I expand $variable.
I have tried many thing like duble quotes/braces etc, but nothing worked.
